The administration of Masjid-e-Nabawi in Saudi Arabia has released the Ziyarat timings in Riyazul Jannat (Al-Rawdah Al-Sharifah) for Ramadan 2026. This time, to handle the crowd properly, separate shifts have been fixed for men and women. People who are going to Madinah for Umrah or Ziyarat during Ramadan will have to obtain a permit in advance through the Nusuk app. The administration has made it clear that no one will be allowed to enter without a valid permit.
